Recommendation #1

This is a super fun and fast paced sci-fi series. I am personally not a huge sci-fi fan, but I love this series! It’s a nice introduction to sci-fi because the whole alien-space-planet-invading things isn’t too overwhelming.

The cool thing is that these are sci-fi fairytale retellings! I don’t know about you, but I LOVE retellings.

So the first book is Cinder. This is a retelling of Cinderella. The second book is Scarlet, a retelling of Little Red Riding Hood. The third is Cress, a retelling of Rapunzel. They are so great! There is also a novella called Fairest that follows the villain of the series.

Marissa Meyer connects the stories in an absolutely amazing way. It’s so complex and genius, especially in the second book. I loved it! And the cast of characters we have by the third book is awesome. It’s such a fun series.
